Nutritionist approved!
We've been working with Holly Barker of Sport Dog Nutrition to ensure that we can confidently say that these biscuits are "good for your dog".
Wait, but isn't grain bad for dogs?
Well, no.
If your dog has a grain/gluten allergy, then yes, grain will be bad for your dog. But that’s quite uncommon. In fact, your dog is much more likely to be allergic to animal protein!
There is very little evidence to support the grain-free movement, and studies show that some grain in the diet is better than a strict high protein diet.
Nutritional Benefits
Good for the gut
High in fibre which helps promote gut health by promoting water balance in the gut, providing a healthy environment for good bacteria. It will also help firm up poos if that's a problem.
Good for the coat
The fatty acids in linseed will give your dog a shiny coat, whilst the yeast is full of B vitamins, antioxidants, and loads of minerals that will help your dog's skin, hair, eyes and certain organ functions too.
Calming effect
Our recipe gives the Bix some serious crunch. Chewing and crunching releases happy hormones in dogs and promotes calm. The carbohydrates in the biscuit assist a good night's sleep by supporting the production of L-tryptophan.
Are the Bix Vegan?
Yes! Our Bix are entirely plant-based. We didn't see the need to add meat, so we didn't.
